Custom software for your business

Lakecipher builds custom business software from ₹30,000: billing, appointments, stock, school fees and similar daily tools. A focused tool usually takes 3 to 6 weeks. It runs in a browser, so it works on your computer and your phone, and your data and code stay yours.

Who this is for

  • Clinics that manage tokens and patient follow-ups in a notebook
  • Schools and coaching centres tracking fees in spreadsheets
  • Traders and mills whose stock and billing live in different places

What's included

  • A written list of what the tool will do, before any code is written
  • Login accounts with different access for staff and owners
  • Data export at any time, so you are never locked in
  • Daily backups set up in your own account
  • Training for your staff

What isn't

  • Server costs, paid by you to the provider, often a few hundred rupees a month for a small tool

An honest note. If ready-made software like Vyapar, Zoho or Tally does the job, use it. It's cheaper. Custom software only makes sense when your way of working really is different.

How it works

1. Watch the work first

We sit with the person who does the job today. Most software fails because it was designed by someone who never saw the work.

2. Replace one job, not everything

We start with the one task that wastes the most time, and add to it only after your staff use it.

3. Keep your exit open

You can export your data and take the code whenever you want.

Questions about custom software

Should I buy ready-made software or get it built?

Try ready-made first if it fits. Billing and accounting are well served by existing products. Build custom only when your process is unusual, or when you already pay for several tools that don't talk to each other.

Does it work without the internet?

A browser tool needs a connection by default. If your location has poor internet, we can design key screens to work offline and sync later, at additional cost.

Is my data safe?

Your data stays in your own account, with daily backups and separate logins for staff. No system is perfectly secure, but you keep control and can leave with your data at any time.
